What does this update include?

6.0.161 (4/9/2003)

6.0.156 (Mar 20, 2003)

=E2=80=A2 Downloads grid square and lat/lon from QRZ web callbook interface.

=E2=80=A2 Fixed band column header in progress forms. =20

=20

6.0.151 (Feb 11, 2003)

=E2=80=A2 Web callbook lookup updated to support the new <A HREF=3D"http://h=
amcall.net/">Buckmaster Hamcall</A> site.

=E2=80=A2 New command line parameter:  SetClockOnly=3DYES on the command lin=
e causes=20
LOGic to set the system clock to the National Institute of Standards &=20
Technology (NIST) atomic clock, then exit.  You can create a shortcut on the=
 desktop,=20
which you can merely click to set the system clock!

=E2=80=A2 The dialog box that appears when you use the manu option to manual=
ly=20
request LOGic to set the system clock to NIST now closes automatically in a=20=
few=20
seconds if you do not click OK.

=20

=20

6.0.149 (Jan 28, 2003)

=E2=80=A2 Spot log no longer displays unused blank records.

=E2=80=A2 Fixed problem of duplicate spots showing up in  spot log when usin=
g=20
WebCluster.

=E2=80=A2 Log form(s) now close automatically when rescoring a contest.  Thi=
s=20
prevents improper score from being displayed in the scoring form.

=20

6.0.140 (Dec 31, 2002)

=E2=80=A2 You may now select the order of the spot log by Call, Time Posted,=
 or Time=20
Received. Click on the column header.  Time Posted is provided by WebCluster=
=20
only.  If a spot is received from elsewhere, Time Posted is the same as Time=
=20
Received

=E2=80=A2 While navigating in the spot log grid, the display will not update=
 for ten=20
seconds after any activity, even if scroll lock is off.  Think of this as an=
=20
automatic mini-scroll-lock.

=E2=80=A2 Improved preprocessing of webcluster spots.  -@ is inserted after=20=
the SPOT=20
BY callsign when someone sends a spot over the internet.  Also, the DXCC=20
prefix is inserted by the Webcluster at the end of the comment field for som=
e=20
spots.  This results in duplicate spots being displayed by Webcluster.  LOGi=
c=20
removes this extemporaneous info so that it's dupe filtering eliminates the=20=
dupes.

=E2=80=A2 New option in spot log for mapping of spots.  You may choose to pl=
ot all=20
spots received on the map, or only needed spots.  Preciously, all spots were=
=20
plotted.

=E2=80=A2 Improved speed of processing incoming webcluster spots.  Spots rec=
eived=20
rapid-fire from other sources will also process faster.

=E2=80=A2 The Canadian Island web site not only moved to <A HREF=3D"http://w=
ww.qsl.net/ve3tpz/cisa/Canadian.html">
http://www.qsl.net/ve3tpz/cisa/Canadian.html</A>, but the format of the HTML=
 has changed.  As a result,=20
previous versions of LOGic will not read it properly.=20

=E2=80=A2 New feature to automatically handle Daylight Savings Time changeov=
er.  You=20
may operate during DST changeover, and UTC will stay correct.  Auto changeov=
er=20
is the new default.  Your system clock must be set to "Automatically adjust=20
for Daylight Savings Time". Go to LOGic's tools/setup/station info to check=20=
the=20
settings.  There is a button here to access the system control panel. Please=
=20
check these settings in LOGic and the control panel after installing the=20
update.  You don't want any unpleasant surprises in April!

The only thing that won't update properly if DST changeover happens while=20
operating is the map.  To fix the display, click Forms/Map again, or close a=
nd=20
reopen the map or LOGic.

The old manual UTC offset is still available for those who like to set their=
=20
system clock to UTC or whatever.

=E2=80=A2 A label has been added to the log screen for Freq TX.  It is hidde=
n by=20
default.  To use it, unhide it and move it into position.

=E2=80=A2 Fixed spot log scroll lock.

=E2=80=A2 Fixed problem of wrong spot being processed if logging or setting=20=
rig after=20
receiving a spot while scroll lock is on.

=E2=80=A2 Fixed problem where first spot listed by Webcluster was not being=20
processed.

=E2=80=A2 Worked-around a problem logging RTTY spots when using TRX-Manager.=
 =20
Previously, the mode would not be set properly in TRX-Manager.  RTTY spots a=
re not=20
passed to TRX-Manager, since this is what was causing the mode to be set=20
improperly.  Laurent will look into this.

=E2=80=A2 Fixed problem of Xverter offset settings with digits more than 2 p=
laces=20
past the decimal not being reloaded into setup screen.

=E2=80=A2 {Esc} no longer closes callbook windows.  We received complaints t=
hat=20
people were accidentally closing it, thinking they are using the Undo keyboa=
rd=20
shortcut in the log form.

=E2=80=A2 Fixed problem with Other QSOs window.  Previously, If minimized on=
=20
shutdown, it would still be normal on restart.

=20

6.0.124 (Sept 18, 2002)=E2=80=A2 New driver for Kenwood TS-2000 that polls t=

6.0.120 (Aug 21, 2002)=E2=80=A2 Several bugs fixed--could not delete a state=

mproper=20
function keys sent if more than one terminal window was open. Intermittent=20
problem with Callbook Batch Update when using web. Progress bars were not=20
refreshing properly.

=E2=80=A2 Frequency fields now support up to 999 gHz.

=E2=80=A2 New Manage Radio Memories button on the Radio Memories form.  Impo=
rt and=20

lt.asp#ftp">FTP site</A> to share with others!=20

=E2=80=A2 Fixed problem with not being able to clear state field.

=E2=80=A2 Fixed problem with MixW interface, where changing the call in MixW=
 before=20
saving would not change the call in LOGic.=20

=E2=80=A2 New function DEB() (deblank) removes all leading and trailing spac=
es, and=20
all but one space between words.  So for a RTTY function key, you could send=
 =20

DEB("Hi " + NAME + ". How are things in " + QTH + " today?")  =20

It will space properly when sent.  This is easier than using TRIM() on each=20
field: =20

"Hi " + trim(NAME) + ". How are things in " + trim(QTH)  + " today?"=20

 =20

Build 6.0.111 (May 15, 2002):=20

=E2=80=A2 Canadian Islands Update fixed to use new site. LOGic may remember=20=
the old=20
URL.  Change it to the new URL, or delete the file INTERNET.INI. The new URL=

wd8mgq/cisa/Canadian.html</A> =20

=E2=80=A2 When running or printing a report, the IMAGES directory inside LOG=
ic is now=20
searched if the picture isn't found at the specified location.

=E2=80=A2 New option under File/Print lists all reports that have no categor=
y=20
assigned.  You could also access these reports with the All Reports option.=20=
 However,=20
the new option is a convenient way to identify imported LOGic 5 reports for=20
you to assign a category to.

=E2=80=A2 Support for Prosistel rotor.  There is about a 4-second delay when=
 setting=20
this rotor.  This delay is required by the Prosistel interface.  We cannot=20
"fix" it.

=E2=80=A2 Fixed random information that showed up in the browse form for unu=
sed=20

=E2=80=A2 You may now specify an LPT port by address. For one customer, the=20=
mapping=20
of LPT1 to the proper address did not work. To do this, open the CW keyer, g=
o=20
to Setup, and click Select Ports.  Close the Select Port form. (This seeming=
ly=20
useless operation updates the .ini file).  Now, open KEYER.INI in the LOGIC6=
=20
folder (double-click it), and modify the file as indicated.  To see what=20
address is currently in use, right-click the Select Ports button in the Keye=
r.

=E2=80=A2 The Terminal windows, including Telnet, HamScope, etc. now have th=

them.  This problem is apparently video-card related.  We cannot reproduce i=

will resolve the problem.  Let us know.

=E2=80=A2 Fixed problem doing multiple backups and a few other nuisance erro=
